So far only eight copies have surfaced, which makes it the rarest game on this list but the exact number of copies in existance isn't known.

The lowest priced game on the list, but definitely the hardest to pronounce. This is the last game in the Ar Tonelico trilogy and the only one released for the PS3. Ar tonelico Qoga is a Japanese RPG with real time battles and was released by NIS America in early 2011. This title is very likely to get a re-release at some point because it is selling for more than retail price only six months after release.

I bought the GTA one way back then. The safe deposit box is very well made, but I don't really have much that it's good for (kind of obvious for a thief that goes looking for the good stuff).

The gym bag that comes with it has come in handy often, but it isn't the best quality. Almost all of the buttons that hold the carrying handles together fall off. The zippers are still intact, and it's cool to have the Rockstar logo on the bag itself.

wow thats to much money lol i bet a lot of people are not going buy a 3000 dollar video games edition lol wtf no one is not going buy that for 3000 bucks there worth 100bucks thats kinda stupid to sale a game for thousands of dollars thats dumb

wtf man you selling all of that for thousands of dollars lol i can find i better deal for that stuff dude thats worth a 100 bucks you crazy no one cant afford it lol do u get it maybe no lol people in the country are strulgling for money lol i mean people dont get paid enough look at u selling it for a high price u gotta reude tthat prises it should be a 100 bucks thats a rip of im not paying a fortune for that

Hyperdimensional Neptunia it took almost 6 mouths and going to almost every gamestop within almost 60 miles to track the limited edition, but end up with a Japanese copy the game by it self and finally the limited edition. When I tried on ebay it I though I could try and bid on it for retail price but ended at over 300 dollars no joke....

With less than 15 known copies to exist, it's hard to believe that NBA Elite 11 is still 2nd behind Uncharted, where there were 200 released. Oh well, I'm hoping that eventually it will become the rarest game on the PS3 so I can officially say that I own the rarest game on a certain system! :)

@Lonnie - the big thing keeping the price on NBA Elite down is the question marks surrounding the number of copies in existence. We know exactly how many copies of Uncharted were made, but nobody really knows how many NBA Elite were made.

Maybe it is super rare and only 15 were actually made, or EA might have boxes of them at a warehouse somewhere that they never distributed but could release on the market someday to make a quick buck.

@anonymous - Nobody is paying those prices. The game last sold on eBay for $600 when brand new and the one before that was $800.

People can set their own prices on Amazon so low volume items like this one might have a really high list price, but it doesn't mean anyone is buying it. You should always use sold prices in conjunction with list prices to know what the actual market price is.

These all are such a great and excellent games for playstation 3. It's too expensive in cost but also a nice choice to have a wonderful gaming. This games would be a worth to get for Playstation 3 gamers.

NBA Elite 11's stream looks like a genuine basketball game instead of a dunk fest.The control plan is essentially perfect here.An adaptable directional pad and two multi-purpose buttons serve as the functional tools expected to pass,shoot,block, and steal away the rock from your adversary.Shooting takes a short time to acclimate to.@Jeff Collins.
